    Hello everyone,

    so about 3 weeks ago. A friend of mine and myself did a full EGR cleaning on my 2013 Prius with 130,000 miles. We also installed an oil catch can and this morning, I emptied out my catch can as you can tell by the picture, it was pretty full.

    So my question is does the 2016 RAV4 has the same issues as the 3rd gen Prius with the EGR clogging up? My girlfriend recently got a RAV4 during the summer and it has 35,000 miles on it. I tried looking online if the RAV4 has the same issues or not, but all I could find is the cost of replacing the EGR. Can anyone offer some assistance oil catch can.jpg ?

    Fluid in my past catch cans looked like engine oil, because that is what it should be.
    Can the EGR cooler leak?
